Eye For An Eye Retribution American Style

Municipal court judge, Michael Cicconetti, offered his version of justice at a courtroom in Painesville, Ohio.
A woman guilty of an attack with a pepper spray at a Burger King, was given a choice of jail or an eye for an eye style retribution by her victim. She chose the latter and was officially pepper sprayed in the courtroom in front of a portrait of one of America’s most promising Presidents, John F. Kennedy, 35th President of The United States, 1961-1963.

The controversial judge hands out punishments to deter future crime, rather than the traditional lock-up method of jail. The victim of the punishment suffered no chemical harm from her choice of experience.

Cicconetti has a history of unorthodox punishments. He once sentenced a drunk driver to view car crash victims at a local morgue, according to Fox 8.

On Thursday, in addition to Gaston’s pepper spraying, Cicconetti offered a woman who pleaded guilty to theft — after not paying a cab driver — the opportunity to walk the 30-mile distance of her cab ride rather than spend 60 days in jail.

“I do whatever I think will prevent a person from coming back in the courts again,” Cicconetti told WKYC. “Yeah it’s a little different. It’s a little unique, but maybe we just need that a little bit in the judicial system.”
